Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What type of chimneys can I clean with this hedgehog?

This chimney sweep hedgehog is ideal for most wood-burning fireplaces, stoves and flues, both domestic and professional, as long as the diameter of the flue is compatible with the 20 cm of the hedgehog.

How does the hedgehog connect to the chimney sweep rods?

The hedgehog features a standard M12/175 thread, allowing for a secure and firm connection to compatible chimney sweep rods. Ensure the rods you are using have the correct thread.

Is it necessary to use any additional cleaning products?

While a chimney sweep is very effective on its own for removing soot and dried creosote, for heavily encrusted residue or to make the process easier, you can use specific chemical chimney cleaning products. Consult the instructions for use of these products.

How often should I clean my chimney?

It is recommended to clean the chimney at least once a year, or more frequently if it is used intensively. Regular cleaning prevents the dangerous buildup of creosote and ensures optimal draft.

Does the ball at the end have a specific function?

Yes, the ball acts as a counterweight and guide. It facilitates the hedgehog's passage through bends and curves in the pipe, helping to dislodge and remove debris more efficiently.
